Where Filmed

Filming Locations: Where is Mayans MC filmed?

Mayans MC is the long-awaited Sons of Anarchy spin-off, expanding its violent universe with the stories of the Mayans Motorcycle Club gang. The action takes place two and a half years after the events occurred at the end of the 7th season of the original series.

The FX production has an almost completely new cast, lead by J. D. Pardo (The Twilight Saga, Snitch) as Ezekiel. Sarah Bolger (The Tudors, Into the Badlands) is also starring in the project, along with Michael Irby (True Detective, The Unit) and Clayton Cardenas (Snowfall, American Crime).

Both the first and the second seasons of Mayans MC were filmed in California and Mexico. Studio work took place at Santa Clarita Studios, so probably the clubhouse set, the courtyard and other interiors are located there. We try to keep spoilers to a minimum and as usual, we will be updating this report with new information about the filming locations of the second season every week:

Mayans is set in the fictional town of Santo Padre which was filmed in Calexico (Imperial County). Pictured, the iconic Water Tower right at the border with Mexico.
